Amendments to the Constitution

The Sixteenth Amendment allows Congress to impose an income tax and was ratified in 1913.While I have never seen 16 Candles, I can only assume its about Molly Ringwald's frustration as she just barely moves up to the next tax bracket.

The Seventeenth Amendment, passed in 1913 as well, established direct election of senators by popular vote.I showed Ron Paul in a blog. That's, like, +2 Ron Paul points for me.

The Eighteenth Amendment, passed in 1919, prohibited the sale and manufacture of alcohol.

Prohibition returned much easier than it went.

The Nineteenth Amendment, passed in 1920, gave all women n America the right to vote.Suffrage. Or Else.
